Alex Smith did throw for over 300 for the first time in his career. Three thoughts: One, safety Dashon Goldson is struggling. He was out of positon and nearly gave up a game winning TD to Deion Branch, but he dropped it. Then he had a holding call on the final drive. Secondly, Vernon Davis, gets open, he has speed, but he’s had four and possibly five drops the last two games. If he catches half of those, the 49ers win this game. Lastly, the 49ers are still getting used to their Raye gun offense. There were the seven drops and the miscommunications, the 49ers will hopefully eliminate those with a full training camp. Alex Smith was the best player on offense for the 49ers today. The kid can play and unless he collapses over the final four games, the 49ers now know they have a quarterback, which will allow them to spend draft picks on defensive backs, pass rushers, and offensive tackles. By the way, what a game by Patrick Willis, 15 or 16 tackles. Where would the 49ers be without that guy?

Mike Singletary concluded a very short post game chat with the media. He said he didn’t blame the referees, but instead blamed his own team.

Singletary also said the plan was to run, but Alex Smith threw it 45 times because of what the Seahawks were showing.

Alex Smith was he’s even self in an radio interview with KNBR. “There were some good things we did in the passing game, and it’s just me. We got to learn from it, and we take it with us to next week,” he said.

Bly blamed the loss on the officials. “They didn’t let us play. They let them guys play, they didn’t let us play.”
